Feline parvovirus antigen (FPV Ag) Rapid Test Kit
Catalog No.:
Description
The FPV Ag Rapid Test qualitatively detects feline parvovirus (FPV) antigen in fecal samples collected from cats. It provides a visual result at the point of care within minutes, supporting rapid diagnosis of feline panleukopenia in patients with compatible gastrointestinal signs.

INTENDED USE
Qualitative detection of feline parvovirus (FPV) antigen in feces collected from cats, for veterinary point-of-care use. It aids in the diagnosis of feline panleukopenia (feline parvoviral enteritis) when used with clinical signs and hematology. A positive result indicates active viral shedding; however, recent modified-live vaccination may yield transient positives, and results must be interpreted together with clinical findings and, if needed, PCR confirmation.
PRINCIPLE
The FPV Ag Rapid Test is a lateral-flow immunochromatographic assay based on colloidal gold labeling. The test cassette contains a nitrocellulose membrane with a test (T) line pre-coated with capture antibody against FPV and a control (C) line. When the processed fecal extract is added to the sample well, it migrates by capillary action. If FPV antigen is present, it binds the gold-conjugated antibody and is captured at the T line, forming a visible colored band. The C line should always appear, confirming the assay ran correctly. Results are read visually by the naked eye within the stated time; no instrument is required.
SPECIMEN
Collect a fresh fecal sample from the cat. Prepare an extract by mixing a small amount of feces with the provided diluent according to the kit procedure. Use fresh samples and avoid contamination; test promptly. If delay is unavoidable, store the fecal sample refrigerated for a short period and mix well before preparing the extract.
